Scientists changed the name of Alfred Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift to the theory of plate tectonics. This shift occurred as a result of accumulating evidence and advancements in understanding the Earth's lithosphere, which is divided into tectonic plates that move and interact. Plate tectonics encompasses not only the movement of continents but also the mechanisms driving these movements, such as seafloor spreading and subduction.
